    Hi Joseph.

    I totally understand grief of a sudden loss.  My son died in his sleep and his wife found him gone in the morning.  Every person experiences grief in their own way and each loss has its own identity.  Im very sorry you know that first hand.  Two months is not very long at all so no wonder you are having such a hard time.  Take gentle care of yourself every day.

    Hi Joseph, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved wife. My sister died from SUDEP...sudden unexplained death in an epileptic.  So, tragic, her seizures were due to a mild head injury, well, couldn't have been too mild, 21 yrs ago. She would have periodic "popping" sensations in her head. I wrote a blog on here, and it has helped me to just really write it down.  I changed my profile picture to my sisters pic, didn't know I could post an album. Lot's to learn. I am in MA, so EST. I have a very hard time sleeping, wake up suddenly every night at 3:30am when she died.  I wish you peace.  Lou Lou

    Hi Joseph,

    I have read a little about the loss of your wife from your profile, but I was wondering if you would be interested in sharing a little more of your story with me. I am part of a research team at Saint Louis University that is looking at end of life decision making and family communication. If you are interested in taking part in an interview, please let me know. 

    Best,
